MV Kungsholm


 MV Kungsholm was built in 1966 by the John Brown & Company shipyard in Clydebank, Scotland as a combined ocean liner / cruise ship for the Swedish American Line. She was later rebuilt as a full-time cruise ship sailing under the names MV Sea Princess, MV Victoria, MV Oceanic II and MV Mona Lisa. In September 2010 she was retired from service as she did not fulfil requirements to SOLAS 2010, becoming the floating hotel Veronica, before being scrapped in 2016.
